I didn't open from Malaysia. Went in person with the forms to Maybank KE SG submit there. No need commissioner of oath.
These are all compulsory forms:
KE Trade Account Application Form (tick prefunded)
Electronic Payment for Shares (You can try using this to link the account to Maybank KE but Maybank KE do support FAST transfer 
Client Proficiency Assessment Form
Tax Residency Self-Certification Form

Forms if you want to buy Manulife US Reit:
W8-BEN Form
Risk Warning Statement

You can do like elea said or you photoocpy, go to Maybank KE and let the staff verify all your documents.
Cause he wants to buy Manulife US reit and Standard Chartered SG does not let him buy?

It is not a reit.

it is a close end fund. CEF

Yes. North canal road. But the staff there are not very knowledgeable. All old aunties (no offences against old people). If you compare DBS V staff vs maybank KE staff, DBS V staff know what to do. These aunties are like very blur.

I think it's better if you go to westgate as what elea and gark did.

You can try email maybank ke and ask can you link your standard charterd account to maybank ke as the EPS  form doesn't have standard chartered available (only DBS, OCBC, UOB, Citibank).

No charges. Unless you meant maintenance fees for overseas shares?

For now until end of Dec min SGD10 or 0.18%.  After that,  if they decide not to continue promo, it will be min SGD18 or 0.18%.
Maybank KE prefunded chaeges

Dividend will be paid into trading account.

To get money back into your bank account, have to contact your remisier.

Already sign up. My Maybank KE prefunded is link to my MBB SG account. This is how the system works. If you use Maybank KE cash account, then dividend will be paid out from CDP into your selected bank account. Actually I don't really need this maybank account since I have DBS. Waste my SGD500 (minimum amount).

Don't know want to close maybank account or DBS account. Haiz.

Go try luck.Visit any of the POSB branches and ask them is there a SGD500 account you can open. I heard there's one but only for SGrean. Not sure if they will let us open.
If can, open that, close MCA.

Reason for keeping my DBS MCA
1) it's SG bank. Maybank is MY bank. People said if something happen to Maybank, Maybank SG also not spared although MAS have taken steps to prevent this kind of thing to happen. Maybank along with SCB have been granted full licensed by MAS that means to operate in SG, they must meet the min safety requirements.

If you have no need, just close it. You can also put SGD65 inside there for them to deduct while you put the SGD2940 to good use. Investing in something which give 5% also good enough to cover DBS fees.

If I am in your shoes, close it. Stick with standard chartered and cimb sg (for 1%pa parking place as it's free). That way, I still have 2 trading account. SCB (main one)  and Maybank KE as backup. I am working towards getting SCB and close my DBS (there's a way)

The best multicurrency so far I found so far is OCBC. No fall below fees. But like all SG banks, charge you 1% to deposit foreign currency.

For me my plan
1) work towards getting SCB account
2) get posb SGD500 account if possible
3) close DBS MCA and Maybank account.

Actually my intention was not to open Maybank. It was more of backup plan. But since teropen already, just leave it there.   Got my DBS bank account then I found out that my Maybank application was send down to SG (together with brother. That time send first. Can get or not is 2nd question) already.

I never use any DBS ATM machine to withdraw money. Only deposit money Only spend max SGD20 in SG. (kiamsiap)
Just do a transfer then withdrawal between any of the 3 banks via FAST so that account is not dormant. I cannot get any info about dormancy account in SG. For those with DBS, login, go check out the apply tab. There's a eEveryday Savings account (the SGD500 POSB account). Supposedly able to apply via online. Haven't tried.

elea88, if you have lots of money to park, try Citibank Maxigain. Can get close to 2% No fall below fees.

Bro this is for warchest. If stocks market crash tomorrow, you can withdraw in time to deploy or not?

Too expensive for my stomach. (SGD is 3x RM)

thanks ram. yes, I came across the info and it is still quite a lot of digest, but keep up the good work and I'm sure such info would be helpful to many

If you are okay with Canadian shares,.. then I have experienced ones that fulfilled all my four criteria earlier,....

If you get a one time dividend at 240 cents at say, POS at $20. It is a yield of 12%.

If you get 20 cents per month, the 1st 20 cents is actually in your pocket. It is already principal yielding number in addition to the $20 stock.
You may buy back into the stock or other instruments of yield.

Say yo have 1000 shares. You receive 20 cents dividend, giving $200. You reinvest receiving 10 shares. This 10 shares will give your further dividends in the next month.

Therefore at year end, you are receiving more than 12% in total.

No.

The 20 cents is gross. Take away tax and it is 14 cents

wa lao hard to catch up le

i just start SREIT, you all go AUS & Canada liao

FTN is giving yield of 14.93% at POS of $10.10

DR is giving only 6.88% at POS of $16.35

No. 2 does not seem to meet your criteria?

i interested in the US one.. but hv to calculate carefully the entry cost.
brokerage.. collection of dividend.. all got cost.

i see global markets incl sgx continuing to rise, sheer market momentum, from superb liquidity.

sg reits...  most of them can still go higher.

counters and bourses not going higher or going down - more reason to dump them.

haha. Fund Manager? Me AUNTIE only la...

Managing my own wealth.

Still learning.. everyday trying to memorize candle sticks etc etc...

My biggest holdings in my portfolio is AIMS.. just add every year....
